The view was beautiful looking out at the lake. During my stay I had the pickerel cheek appetizer which was phenomenal. I've attached a picture of it. I also had for lunch the fish and chips which is local pickerel battered and cooked to perfection. Another evening I tried the "some like it hot" which is a fettuccine pasta dish with a little bit of heat/spice, It was really good. Highly recommend the cashew and cranberry salad. All in all I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a quality meal for a fair price.

Listen, the food here is worth the drive…read more We all had pierogi meals, they all come with sausage or meatballs when a dinner. Totally worth the drive. Poutine for an appetizer. Was great, rich brown gravy and what must be hand cut fries. Was delicious. For dessert, more pierogis. 5 types of fruit and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Daily fresh borscht and options for those averse to the Ukrainian decadence. The owner is as much a character as is the dining area carries. She's warm, funny, and carries herself like a community aunt - joking, laughing, and suggesting you eat more. And no matter how much you can eat, it's affordable. Worth. The. Drive.

At this place they make "hard" ice cream into "soft" ice cream and I love the idea! I love the soft…read moreMcDonald's ice cream! So to make other more unique flavors like Salted Caramel or Burgundy Cherry into soft, creamy, easy to lick or eat was excellent for me. I picked "Maple Walnut" flavor of hard ice cream with Reese's chocolate and watched it go into the machine to make it soft. The cool thing here is that you pick a flavor and a candy and I picked Reese's chocolate. It all gets squished and mushed together in the machine to give you a unique soft ice cream! My combination on a cone was delicious! Definitely an awesome concept!

Before I even mention the desserts, I have to mention the owners- Linda and her family. The kindest and happiest people you will meet! We would go and get ice cream and coffee and just sit on the street listening to the incredible music. What a way to end the day. We also rented bikes a couple times from Buskers and Linda and company were kind enough to sketch us a little map to a trail they recommend. The desserts were to die for, but even if they weren't... This place is so worth it. So welcoming, such positive energy. My little boy wants to travel to Gimli when he's old enough to have a job, just to work there. That's gotta say something. Thank you for great memories Buskers By the Beach!

I grew up visiting the previous Einfeld's bakery, and would make special trips out there just to…read morevisit the bakery. Everything was excellent. Therefore, the bakery held a lot of nostalgia for me. I was very sad to hear they permanently closed. We visited the new Village Green Bakery today. Overall, we would say that the items we tried were good but not excellent. It is different and does not compare to Einfeld's baked goods, but we would buy things from them again if we were around there. Not sure if it would warrant a special trip to go to the bakery specifically. We tried: 1. Beach Bread - 4/5. More dense than the previous Irish loaves. Good flavor though and chewy. Fresh. 2. Sticky/Goo Buns - 3.5/5. Less gooey than previous pecan loaves, smaller, and the dough is harder and drier. Good balance of flavor though, and tastes homemade and not commercial. 3. Iced Cinnamon Buns - 3/5. Dough was better and lighter than the sticky buns, but would have preferred more filling and no icing as it made it too sweet. 4. Nutella Turnover - 3/5. Flaky and sugar crusted which was tasty. Could have used more filling - really lacking there. Just a tiny glob in the very middle. 5. Imperial/Dream Cookies - 3.5/5. Completely different than the previous dream cookies in almost every way. This used to be a staple in my order so I had really been hoping for something similar. Cookie was not as flaky, jam had seeds, and a totally different icing. But it was soft and tasted good. 6. Smile Cookies - 3/5. Different than the previous ones. Dough was drier but still chewy. Not as deep of flavor. Still good though. We would say it's worth a try. Everything was decent. We appreciate that they tried to keep some traditions, and also tried their own things.

I have to say that this is one of the worst places to eat that I'd ever had the misfortune to be…read moreat. The food was horrible. The prices for this horrible food were even worse. Then we have the service. Well, the 3 east Indian guys that were arguing about something chose to close up the window and not serve anyone for close to 29 minutes. The food was dry and hard. Fries were dry and hard and cold.. Chicken burgers are not to be deep fried until they are half burned. Loaded means more than one piece of lettuce, with mayo and the rest, and should have a melted piece of cheese on it. A hot dog should be cooked and on a bun that isn't moldy and dry. The works means more than just a hot dog on a bun. Then there are the battered mushrooms. Very very small and very very greasy. We had received 11 tiny mushrooms for 6.50. In years past, this was a great place at which to eat and hang out. Now, it seems to be an excuse to have a business and try to make as much money as possible on bad food, bad service, and bad work ethics. We weren't impressed. We have many friends who live, and visit Winnipeg Beach, Matlock, and Gimli. We won't be recommending this place to any of them. We will definitely not be back either.

It didn't taste like there was any kind of sauce on it at all. I had to ask for condiments to make it tastier. It had lots of lettuce and one little slice of tomato on the fish and no sauce except for some kind of oil. It wasn't tasty. The fries were too crispy and not salty or seasoned. I think the food deserves a 2 star rating but the restaurant is beautiful and the staff nice so 3 stars it is.
